MILLS MAINTENANCE FACILITY PHASE II AND II ROADWAY AND DRAINAGE City of Port Arthur Transit • Department Memorandum To: Ron Burton,City Manager From: Ivan Mitchell,Transit-Fleet Director N Date: September 17,2025 Re: P.R.24461 —H.O.Mills Maintenance Facility Phase II and III Roadway and Drainage Reconstruction Nature of Request: Authorize the City Manager to execute a contract with Construction Managers of Southeast Texas,LLC for Phase II and Phase III roadway and drainage reconstruction at the City's H.O. Mills Maintenance Facility,in an amount not to exceed$1,114,939.19. Background: The H.O. Mills Maintenance and Operations Complex serves as a critical hub for multiple City departments, including Fleet, Parks, Solid Waste, and Police. The facility's internal roadway network is essential for the transport and operation of vehicles and heavy equipment. In March 2023,The Solco Group,LLC (TSG)conducted a preliminary review of the H.O. Mills Facility. It determined that the internal roadway network had surpassed its useful life and was in need of substantial reconstruction. Specifically, the entrance driveway at 101 H.O. Mills Boulevard showed severe pavement distress and partial failure, requiring both full-depth and partial reconstruction along with associated drainage system repairs. • Resolution No. 24-019 authorized the City Manager to execute a contract with TSG for engineering and design services for driveway reconstruction and drainage repairs in the amount not to exceed $38,448.00. Following this authorization, the City advertised bid documents in November 2024 and selected the bid of ALLCO,LLC in the amount not to exceed$526,857.00. • Resolution No. 25-139 subsequently authorized the City Manager to execute a second contract with TSG for engineering and design services for Phase II and Phase III roadway and drainage reconstruction in the amount not to exceed $74,039.88. The City advertised bid documents on August 13 and August 17, 2025, and selected the bid of Construction Managers of Southeast Texas,LLC in the amount not to exceed$1,114,939.19. This project is essential to the preservation of the City's fleet and equipment. The deteriorated condition of the roadways at H.O. Mills poses an ongoing risk of damage to City assets. Timely reconstruction will ensure that Port Arthur's vehicles and equipment remain safe, dependable, and in a state of good repair,while also maintaining the functional and professional appearance of this critical operations facility. Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council approve P.R. No. 24461, authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Construction Managers of Southeast Texas,LLC,for Phase II and Phase III roadway and drainage reconstruction at the H.O.Mills Maintenance Facility in an amount not to exceed$1,114,939.19.

Install formed joints as shown on the plans. Install transverse bulkhead forms to support extending reinforcing steel, shaped accurately to the cross- section of the pavement when placing of concrete is stopped. 4.3.1. Placing Reinforcement at Joints. Install reinforcing steel at transverse construction joints as shown on the plans. Use multiple-piece tie bars, drilled and epoxy-grouted tie bars, or mechanically inserted single-piece tie bars at longitudinal construction joints. Discontinue the use of mechanically inserted single-piece tie bars if this method results in steel misalignment or improper location, poor concrete consolidation, or other inadequacies. Protect the reinforcing steel immediately beyond the construction joint from damage, vibration, and impact. For drilled and epoxy-grouted tie bars, drill holes into the existing concrete at least 10 in. deep unless otherwise directed. Use a drill bit with a diameter that is 1/8 in. greater than that of tie bars. Clean the holes using a wire brush and compressed air to remove all the dust and moisture. Only cartridge or machine applicator epoxies are allowed. Follow the epoxy manufacturer's instructions to apply the epoxy. Insert the tip of the epoxy cartridge or the tip of the machine applicator to the end of the tie bar hole, and inject Type III, Class C, epoxy to fill the hole with the amount of epoxy recommended by the manufacture for the size of bar and depth of hole. Insert tie bars. 4.3.2. Testing of Tie Bars.

Perform corrective measures to provide equivalent pullout resistance if any of the test results do not meet the required minimum pullout strength. Repair damage from testing. 4.3.4. Transverse Construction Joints for Concrete Pavement Contraction Design (CPCD). Install and rigidly secure a complete joint assembly and bulkhead in the planned transverse contraction joint location when the placing of concrete is intentionally stopped. Install a transverse construction joint either at a planned transverse contraction joint location or mid-slab between planned transverse contraction joints when the placing of concrete is unintentionally stopped. Install tie bars of the size and spacing used in the longitudinal joints for mid-slab construction joints. Place dowels at mid-depth of the pavement slab, parallel to the surface. Place dowels for transverse contraction joints parallel to the pavement edge. Tolerances for location and alignment of dowels will be shown on the plans. For dowels used in a contraction joint, coat the entire length of the dowels with a thin film of grease, wax, silicone, or other approved de-bonding material. For dowels used in an expansion joint, coat half the length with a thin film of grease, wax, silicone, or other approved de-bonding material; provide dowel caps on the coated half of each dowel bar. 4.4. Curb Joints. Construct curb joints in accordance with Item 529. 4.5. Placing and Removing Forms. Use clean and oiled forms. Secure forms on a base or firm subgrade that is accurately graded and that provides stable support without deflection and movement by form riding equipment. Pin every form at least at the middle and near each end. Tightly join and key form sections together to prevent relative displacement. Set side forms far enough in advance of concrete placement to permit inspection. Check conformity of the grade, alignment, and stability of forms immediately before placing concrete, and make all necessary corrections. Use a straightedge or other approved method to test the top of forms to ensure that the ride quality requirements for the completed pavement will be met. Stop paving operations if TXDOT ITEM 360-6 OF 16 i" REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 forms settle or deflect more than 1/8 in. under finishing operations. Reset forms to line and grade, and refinish the concrete surface to correct grade. Avoid damage to the edge of the pavement when removing side forms and bulkhead forms. Repair damage resulting from form removal with an approved repair material within 24 hr. after form removal unless otherwise approved. Chip excessively honeycombed areas to sound concrete, and repair with an approved repair material within 24 hr. after form removal unless otherwise approved. Clean joint face within 24 hr. after a bulkhead for a transverse construction joint has been removed unless otherwise approved. Promptly apply membrane curing compound to the edge of the concrete pavement when forms are removed before 72 hr. after concrete placement. Forms that are not the same depth as the pavement but within 2 in. of that depth are permitted if the subbase is trenched or the full width and length of the form base are supported with a firm material to produce the required pavement thickness. Promptly repair the form trench after use. Use flexible or curved wood or metal forms for curves of 100-ft. radius or less. 4.6. Concrete Delivery. Clean delivery equipment as necessary to prevent accumulation of old concrete before loading fresh concrete. Use agitated delivery equipment for concrete designed to have a slump of more than 5 in. Segregated concrete is subject to rejection. Begin the discharge of concrete delivered in agitated delivery equipment in accordance with Item 421. Place non-agitated concrete within 45 min. after batching. Reduce times as directed when hot weather or other conditions cause quick setting of the concrete. 4.7. Concrete Placement. Do not allow the pavement edge to deviate from the established paving line by more than 1/2 in. at any point. Place the concrete as near as possible to its final location, and minimize segregation and rehandling. Distribute concrete using shovels where hand spreading is necessary. Do not use rakes or vibrators to distribute concrete. 4.7.1. Consolidation. Consolidate all concrete using approved mechanical vibrators operated on the front of the paving equipment. Use immersion-type vibrators that simultaneously consolidate the full width of the placement when machine finishing. Keep vibrators from dislodging reinforcement. Use hand-operated vibrators to consolidate concrete for concrete pavement (formed) placements, and along forms, at all joints, and in areas not accessible to the machine- mounted vibrators. Do not operate machine-mounted vibrators while the paving equipment is stationary. Vibrator operations are subject to review. 4.7.2. Curbs. Curbs will be in accordance with Item 529. 4.7.3. Temperature Restrictions. Place concrete that is between 40°F and 95°F when measured in accordance with Tex-422-A, at the time of discharge, except that concrete may be used if it was already in transit when the temperature was found TXDOT ITEM 360 - 7 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 to exceed the allowable maximum. Take immediate corrective action or cease concrete production when the concrete temperature exceeds 95°F. Do not place concrete when the ambient temperature in the shade is below 40°F and falling, unless approved. Concrete may be placed when the ambient temperature in the shade is above 35°F and rising or above 40°F. Protect the pavement with an approved insulating material capable of protecting the concrete for the specified curing period when temperatures warrant protection against freezing. Submit for approval proposed measures to protect the concrete from anticipated freezing weather for the first 72 hr. after placement. Repair or replace all concrete damaged by freezing. 4.8. Spreading and Finishing. Finish all concrete pavement using approved self- propelled equipment. Use power-driven spreaders, power-driven vibrators, power-driven strike-off screed, or approved alternate equipment to strike-off the surface of the concrete to the required section and grade without surface voids. Use float equipment for final finishing. Use concrete with a consistency that allows completion of all finishing operations without addition of water to the surface. Use the minimal amount of water fog mist necessary to maintain a moist surface. Reduce fogging if float or straightedge operations result in excess slurry. 4.8.1. Finished Surface. Perform sufficient checks using a minimum 10-ft. long straightedge on the plastic concrete to ensure the final surface is within the tolerances specified in Surface Test A in accordance with Item 585, "Ride Quality for Pavement Surfaces." Check with the straightedge parallel to the centerline. 4.8.2. Maintenance of Surface Moisture. Prevent surface drying of the pavement before application of the curing system by means that may include water fogging, the use of wind screens, or the use of evaporation retardants. Apply evaporation retardant at the manufacturer's recommended rate. Reapply the evaporation retardant as needed to maintain the concrete surface in a moist condition until curing system is applied. Do not use evaporation retardant as a finishing aid. Failure to take acceptable precautions to prevent surface drying of the pavement will be cause for shutdown of pavement operations. 4.8.3. Surface Texturing. Complete final texturing before the concrete has attained its initial set. Drag the carpet longitudinally along the pavement surface with the carpet contact surface area adjusted to provide a satisfactory coarsely textured surface. Prevent grout from plugging the carpet. Do not perform carpet dragging operations while there is excessive bleed water. A metal-tine texture finish is required unless otherwise shown on the plans. Provide longitudinal tining unless otherwise shown on the plans. Immediately following the carpet drag, apply a single coat of evaporation retardant, if needed, at the rate recommended by the manufacturer. Provide the metal-tine finish immediately after the concrete surface has set enough for consistent tining. Operate the metal-tine device to obtain grooves approximately 3/16 in. deep, with a minimum depth of 1/8 in., and approximately 1/12 in. wide. Do not overlap a previously tined area. Use manual methods to achieve similar results on ramps, Tea TXDOT ITEM 360- 8 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & III at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 small or irregular areas, and narrow width sections of pavements. Repair damage to the edge of the slab and joints immediately after texturing. Do not tine pavement that will be overlaid or that is scheduled for blanket diamond grinding or shot blasting. Target a carpet drag texture of 0.04 in., as measured by Tex-436-i, when carpet drag is the only surface texture required on the plans. Ensure adequate and consistent macro-texture is achieved by applying enough weight to the carpet and by keeping grout from plugging the carpet. Correct any location with a texture less than 0.03 in. by diamond grinding or shot blasting. The Engineer will determine the test locations at points located transversely to the direction of traffic in the outside wheel path. 4.8.4. Small, Irregular Area, or Narrow Width Placements. Use hand equipment and procedures that produce a consolidated and finished pavement section to the line and grade where machine placements and finishing of concrete pavement are not practical. 4.8.5. Emergency Procedures. Use hand-operated equipment for applying texture, evaporation retardant, and cure in the event of equipment breakdown. 4.9. Curing. Keep the concrete pavement surface from drying in accordance with Section 360.4.8.2., "Maintenance of Surface Moisture," until the curing material has been applied. Maintain and promptly repair damage to curing materials on exposed surfaces of concrete pavement continuously for at least 3 curing days. A curing day is defined as a 24-hr. period when either the temperature taken in the shade away from artificial heat is above 50°F for at least 19 hr. or the surface temperature of the concrete is maintained above 40°F for 24 hr. Curing begins when the concrete curing system has been applied. Stop concrete paving if curing compound is not being applied promptly and maintained adequately. Other methods of curing in accordance with Item 422 may be used when specified or approved. 4.9.1. Membrane Curing. Spray the concrete surface uniformly with two coats of membrane curing compound at an individual application rate of no more than 180 sq. ft. per gallon. Apply the curing compound before allowing the concrete surface to dry. Manage finishing and texturing operations to ensure placement of curing compound on a moist concrete surface, relatively free of bleed water, to prevent any plastic shrinkage from cracking. Time the application of curing compound to prevent plastic shrinkage from cracking. Maintain curing compounds in a uniformly agitated condition, free of settlement before and during application. Do not thin or dilute the curing compound. Apply additional compound at the same rate of coverage to correct damage where the coating shows discontinuities or other defects or if rain falls on the TXDOT ITEM 360- 9 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 newly coated surface before the film has dried enough to resist damage. Ensure that the curing compound coats the sides of the tining grooves. 4.9.2. Asphalt Curing. Apply a uniform coating of asphalt curing at a rate of 90 sq. ft.- 180 sq. ft. per gallon when an asphaltic concrete overlay is required. Apply curing immediately after texturing and once the free moisture (sheen) has disappeared. Obtain approval to add water to the emulsion to improve spray distribution. Maintain the asphalt application rate when using diluted emulsions. Maintain asphalt emulsions in a mixed condition during application. 4.9.3. Curing Class HES Concrete. Provide membrane curing in accordance with Section 360.4.9.1., "Membrane Curing," or wet mat curing in accordance with Section 422.4.8., "Final Curing,"for all Class HES concrete. 4.10. Sawing Joints. Saw joints to the depth shown on the plans as soon as sawing can be accomplished without damage to the pavement, regardless of time of day or weather conditions. Some minor raveling of the saw-cut is acceptable. Use a chalk line, string line, sawing template, or other approved method to provide a true joint alignment. Provide enough saws to match the paving production rate to ensure sawing completion at the earliest possible time to avoid uncontrolled cracking. The Engineer will evaluate the cause of the uncontrolled cracking and direct any necessary repairs. Reduce paving production if necessary to ensure timely sawing of joints. Promptly restore membrane cure damaged within the first 72 hr. of curing. The Engineer will check the depth of saw cuts in accordance with Tex-423-A within 24 hrs. after saw-cutting or before joints are sealed, whichever is sooner. Frequency of checks will be as follows: • every 500 ft. or fraction thereof for all longitudinal contraction joints, and • 10% of transverse contraction joints in CPCD for each daily placement. Resaw contraction joints that are deficient in depth by more than 1/4 in. from plan depth within 24 hr. of depth checks. 4.11. Cleaning and Sealing Joints. Clean and seal joints in accordance with Item 438, "Cleaning and Sealing Joints." Repair excessive spalling of the joint saw groove using an approved method before installing the sealant. Seal all joints before opening the pavement to all traffic. Joint sealants are not required on concrete pavement that is to be overlaid with asphaltic materials. 4.12. Protection of Pavement. Erect and maintain barricades and other standard and approved devices that will exclude all vehicles and equipment from the newly placed pavement for the periods specified. Protect the pavement from damage due to crossings using approved methods before opening to traffic. Where a detour is not readily available or economically feasible, an occasional crossing of the roadway with overweight equipment may be permitted for relocating equipment only, but not for hauling material. When an occasional crossing of overweight equipment is permitted, temporary matting or other approved methods may be required. TPG TXDOT ITEM 360- 10 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 Maintain an adequate supply of sheeting or other material to cover and protect fresh concrete surface from weather damage. Apply as needed to protect the pavement surface from weather. 4.13. Opening to Traffic. Testing for opening pavement to traffic is the responsibility of the Contractor unless otherwise shown on the plans or as directed. Before opening pavement to traffic: • provide test results to the Engineer for review, if necessary, • clean pavement, • place stable material against pavement edges, • seal joints, and • perform all other traffic-safety related work. 4.13.1. Opening Pavement to All Traffic. Pavements can be open to all traffic: • when the pavement is 7 days old, • when 3-day curing is complete and the concrete has attained a compressive strength of 3,200 psi, • after 24 hr. and the concrete has attained a compressive strength of 3,200 psi when Class HES concrete is used, or • after the concrete has been cured for at least 8 hr. and attained a minimum compressive strength of 1,800 psi when Class HES concrete is used. 4.13.2. Opening Pavement to Construction Equipment. Unless otherwise shown on the plans, concrete pavement may be opened to concrete paving equipment and related delivery equipment after the concrete is at least 48 hr. old and has attained a compressive strength of 3,200 psi. Keep delivery equipment at least 2 ft. from the edge of the concrete pavement. Keep tracks of the paving equipment at least 1 ft. from the pavement edge. Protect textured surfaces from the paving equipment. Restore damaged membrane curing as soon as possible. Repair pavement damaged by paving or delivery equipment before opening to all traffic. 4.13.3. Maturity Method. Maturity method, in accordance with Tex-426-A, may be used to estimate concrete strength for opening pavement to traffic. Install at least two maturity sensors for each day's placement in areas where the maturity method will be used for opening. Maturity sensors, when used, will be installed near the day's final placement for areas being evaluated. The Engineer will test specimens to verify the strength-maturity relationship in accordance with Tex-426-A. The strength-maturity relationship will be verified at least every 10 days of production after the first day. Establish a new strength- maturity relationship when the strength specimens deviate more than 10% from the maturity-estimated strengths. Suspend use of the maturity method for opening pavements to traffic when the strength-maturity relationship deviates by more than 10% until a new strength-maturity relationship is established. TXDOT ITEM 360- 11 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 The Engineer will determine the frequency of verification when the maturity method is used intermittently or for only specific areas. 4.13.4. Emergency Opening to Traffic. Open the pavement to traffic under emergency conditions, when the pavement is at least 72 hr. old, when directed in writing. 4.14. Sampling and Testing of Concrete. Unless otherwise specified, all fresh and hardened concrete is subject to testing as follows. 4.14.1. Fresh Concrete. Provide safe access and assistance to the Engineer during sampling.

Tex-422-A; • Making and Curing Strength Specimens. Tex-447-A; • Compressive Strength. Tex-418-A; and • Maturity. Tex-426-A. Maturity specimens will be made only when maturity method is used or shown on the plans. Concrete with slump less than minimum required after all addition of water withheld will be rejected, unless otherwise allowed by the Engineer. Concrete with slump exceeding maximum allowed may be used at the Contractor's option. If used, Engineer will make, test, and evaluate strength specimens in accordance with Section 360.4.15., "Acceptance of Concrete Pavement." Acceptance of concrete not meeting air content or temperature requirements will be determined by Engineer. Fresh concrete exhibiting segregation and excessive bleeding will be rejected. 4.14.2.1. Strength Specimen Handling. After strength test specimens are molded, protect and cure in conformance with pertinent test methods. When necessary, deliver Contractor-molded specimens to curing facilities, remove specimens from their molds, and place specimens in curing tanks within 24-48 hr. after molding, in conformance with pertinent test methods. The Engineer will deliver Department-molded specimens to curing facilities, remove specimens from their molds, and place specimens in curing tanks within 24-48 hr. after molding, in conformance with pertinent test methods. 4.15. Acceptance of Concrete Pavement. The Engineer will determine pay adjustments for deficient pavement thickness within 14 days after concrete pavement has been cored. The Engineer will determine structural adequacy of low concrete strengths within 7 days after design strength specimens or cores, if taken, are tested. 1G TXDOT ITEM 360- 12 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 4.15.1. Pavement Thickness. The Engineer will check the thickness in accordance with Tex-423-A unless other methods are shown on the plans. The Engineer will perform one thickness test consisting of one reading at approximately the center of the paving equipment every 500 ft. or fraction thereof. Core where directed, in accordance with Tex-424-A, to verify deficiencies. Do not core until pavement is at least 7 days old or has achieved design strength. Fill core holes using an approved concrete mixture and method. 4.15.1.1. Assessing Payment Adjustments. Limits for applying a payment adjustment for deficient pavement thickness are 500 ft. units of pavement in each lane. Lane width will be as shown on typical sections and in conformance with pavement design standards. The limits for retaining deficient pavement without compensation or removing and replacing without additional compensation will be defined by coring or equivalent nondestructive means as determined by the Engineer. The remaining portion of the 500-ft. unit allowed for pay adjustment will be subject to the payment adjustment based on the average core thickness deficiency at each end of the 10-ft. interval investigation as determined by the Engineer. Shoulders will be measured for thickness unless otherwise shown on the plans. Shoulders 6 ft. wide or wider will be considered as lanes. Shoulders less than 6 ft. wide will be considered part of the adjacent lane. Shoulders less than 6 ft. wide and placed separately from the adjacent lane will be considered as a lane. Limits for applying payment adjustment for deficient pavement thickness for ramps, widenings, acceleration and deceleration lanes, and other miscellaneous areas are 500-ft. units. Areas less than 500-ft. units will be individually evaluated for payment adjustment based on the plan area. 4.15.1.2. Verification of Thickness Deficiencies. When any fresh depth test measured in accordance with Tex-423-A is deficient by more than 0.50 in. from the plan thickness, take one 4-in. diameter core at that location to verify the measurement. When determining the average thickness deficiency for assessing a pay adjustment other than retaining pavement without compensation or remove and replace as shown in Table 1, take at least two additional cores from the unit, in accordance with Section 360.4.15.1.1., "Assessing Payment Adjustments," equidistantly spaced from the first core in each direction if the first core is deficient by more than 0.50 in. from the plan thickness. Measure the length of cores in accordance with Tex-424-A. Determine the average thickness by averaging the lengths of the cores. Subtract the calculated average thickness from the plan thickness to determine the average thickness deficiency. In calculations of the average thickness, measurements exceeding the plan thickness by more than 0.2 in. will be considered as the plan thickness plus 0.2 in. TXDOT ITEM 360- 13 OF 16 REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENT Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 When determining the limits for retaining the deficient pavement without compensation or remove and replace without additional compensation, take additional cores at 10-ft. intervals in each direction parallel to the centerline to determine the boundary of the deficient area if the first core length deficiency is more than 1.00 in. for pavements less than 11 in. thick or more than 1.50 in. for pavements 11 in. or thicker. Continue taking cores at 10-ft. intervals until the core length deficiency is less than 1.00 in. for pavements less than 11 in. thick or less than 1.50 in. for pavements 11 in. or thicker. 4.15.2. Strength of Concrete Pavement. The Engineer will accept concrete pavement meeting a compressive strength of 3,200 psi at 7 days or meeting a compressive strength of 4,000 psi at 28 days for Class P concrete. Concrete strength testing may be correlated to an age other than 7 days in accordance with Tex-427-A when approved. The Engineer will accept concrete pavement using Class HES concrete based on the required strength and time. Investigate the strength test procedures, the quality of materials, the concrete production operations, and other possible problem areas to determine the cause when a concrete strength test value is more than 10% below the required strength or when three consecutive strength values fall below the required strength. Take necessary action to correct the problem, including redesign of the concrete mix if needed. The Engineer may suspend concrete paving if the Contractor is unable to identify, document, and correct the cause of low-strength test values in a timely manner. The Engineer will evaluate the structural adequacy of the pavements if any strength is more than 15% below the required strength. Remove and replace pavements found to be structurally inadequate at no additional cost when directed. 4.15.3. Ride Quality. Measure and correct ride quality in accordance with Item 585, unless otherwise shown on the plans. 5. MEASUREMENT This Item will be measured as follows. 5.1. Concrete Pavement. Concrete pavement will be measured by the square yard of surface area in place. The surface area includes the portion of the pavement slab extending beneath the curb. 6.

A project will not be considered for acceptance until a vegetative cover of 70% density of existing adjacent undisturbed areas is obtained or equivalent permanent stabilization is obtained in accordance with the TPDES General Permit TXR150000. An exception will be allowed in arid areas as defined in the TPDES General Permit TXR150000. 4.3.4. Restricted Activities and Required Precautions. Do not discharge onto the ground or surface waters any pollutants such as chemicals, raw sewage, fuels, lubricants, coolants, hydraulic fluids, bitumens, or any other petroleum product. Operate and maintain equipment on-site to prevent actual or potential water pollution. Manage, control, and dispose of litter on-site such that no adverse impacts to water quality occur. Prevent dust from creating a potential or actual unsafe condition, public nuisance, or condition endangering the value, utility, or appearance of any property. Wash out concrete trucks only as described in the TPDES General Permit TXR150000. Use appropriate controls to minimize the offsite transport of suspended sediments and other pollutants if it is necessary to pump or channel standing water (i.e., dewatering). Prevent discharges that would contribute to a violation of Edwards Aquifer Rules, water quality standards, the impairment of a listed water body, or other state or federal law. 4.4. Installation, Maintenance, and Removal Work. Perform work in accordance with the SWP3, according to manufacturers' guidelines, and in accordance with the TPDES General Permit TXR150000. Install and maintain the integrity of temporary erosion and sedimentation control devices to accumulate silt and debris until soil disturbing activities are completed and permanent erosion control features are in place or the disturbed area has been adequately stabilized as approved. The Department City will inspect and document the condition of the control measures at the frequency shown on the plans and will provide the Construction SWP3 Field Inspection and Maintenance Reports to the Contractor. Make corrections as soon as possible before the next anticipated rain event or within 7 calendar days after being able to enter the worksite for each control measure. The only acceptable reason for not accomplishing the corrections with the time frame specified is when site conditions are "Too Wet to Work." Take immediate TXDOT ITEM 506-6 OF 16 TEMPORARY EROSION, SEDIMENTATION, AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONTROLS Driveway Reconstruction Phase II & Ill at 101 H 0 Mills Blvd Maintenance Facility City of Port Arthur Contract No: 25-139 action if a correction is deemed critical as directed. When corrections are not made within the established time frame, all work will cease on the project and time charges will continue while the control measures are brought into compliance. Commence work once the Engineer reviews and documents the project is in compliance. Commencing work does not release the Contractor of the liability for noncompliance of the SWP3, plans, or TPDES General Permit TXR 150000.

Note: Executive Order (EO) 13706, Establishing Paid Sick Leave for Federal Contractors applies to all contracts subject to the Davis-Bacon Act for which the contract is awarded (and any solicitation was issued) on or after January 1, 2017. If this contract is covered by the E0, the contractor must provide employees with 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours they work, up to 56 hours of paid sick leave each year. Employees must be permitted to use paid sick leave for their own illness, injury or other health-related needs, including preventive care; to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is ill, injured, or has other health-related needs, including preventive care; or for reasons resulting from, or to assist a family member (or person who is like family to the employee) who is a victim of, domestic violence, sexual assault, or stalking. Additional information on contractor requirements and worker protections under the EO is available at https://www.dol.gov/agencies/whd/government-contracts. Unlisted classifications needed for work not included within the scope of the classifications listed may be added after award only as provided in the labor standards contract clauses (29CFR 5.5 (a) (1) (iii) ) . The body of each wage determination lists the classifications and wage rates that have been found to be prevailing for the type (s) of construction and geographic area covered by the wage determination. The classifications are listed in alphabetical order under rate identifiers indicating whether the particular rate is a union rate (current union negotiated rate) , a survey rate, a weighted union average rate, a state adopted rate, or a supplemental classification rate. Union Rate Identifiers A four-letter identifier beginning with characters other than ""SU"", ""UAVG"", ?SA?, or ?SC? denotes that a union rate was prevailing for that classification in the survey. Example: PLUM0198-005 07/01/2024 . PLUM is an identifier of the union whose collectively bargained rate prevailed in the survey for this classification, which in this example would be Plumbers. 0198 indicates the local union number or district council number where applicable, i.e. , Plumbers Local 0198. The next number, 005 in the example, is an internal number used in processing the wage determination. The date, 07/01/2024 in the example, is the effective date of the most current negotiated rate. Union prevailing wage rates are updated to reflect all changes over time that are reported to WHD in the rates in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) governing the classification. Union Average Rate Identifiers The UAVG identifier indicates that no single rate prevailed for those classifications, but that 100% of the data reported for the classifications reflected union rates. EXAMPLE: UAVG-OH-0010 01/01/2024 . UAVG indicates that the rate is a weighted union average rate. OH indicates the State of Ohio. The next number, 0010 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/01/2024 in the example, indicates the date the wage determination was updated to reflect the most current union average rate. A UAVG rate will be updated once a year, usually in January, to reflect a weighted average of the current rates in the collective bargaining agreements on which the rate is based. Survey Rate Identifiers The ""SU"" identifier indicates that either a single non-union rate prevailed (as defined in 29 CFR 1.2) for this classification in the survey or that the rate was derived by computing a weighted average rate based on all the rates reported in the survey for that classification. As a weighted average rate includes all rates reported in the survey, it may include both union and non-union rates. Example: SUFL2022-007 6/27/2024. SU indicates the rate is a single non-union prevailing rate or a weighted average of survey data for that classification. FL indicates the State of Florida. 2022 is the year of the survey on which these classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 6/27/2024 in the example, indicates the survey completion date for the classifications and rates under that identifier. ?SU? wage rates typically remain in effect until a new survey is conducted. However, the Wage and Hour Division (WHD) has the discretion to update such rates under 29 CFR 1.6 (c) (1) . State Adopted Rate Identifiers The ""SA"" identifier indicates that the classifications and prevailing wage rates set by a state (or local) government were adopted under 29 C.F.R 1.3(g) -(h) . Example: SAME2023-007 01/03/2024. SA reflects that the rates are state adopted. ME refers to the State of Maine. 2023 is the year during which the state completed the survey on which the listed classifications and rates are based. The next number, 007 in the example, is an internal number used in producing the wage determination. The date, 01/03/2024 in the example, reflects the date on which the classifications and rates under the ?SA? identifier took effect under state law in the state from which the rates were adopted. WAGE DETERMINATION APPEALS PROCESS 1) Has there been an initial decision in the matter? This can be: a) a survey underlying a wage determination b) an existing published wage determination c) an initial WHD letter setting forth a position on a wage determination matter d) an initial conformance (additional classification and rate) determination On survey related matters, initial contact, including requests for summaries of surveys, should be directed to the WHD Branch of Wage Surveys. Requests can be submitted via email to davisbaconinfo@dol.gov or by mail to: Branch of Wage Surveys Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20210 Regarding any other wage determination matter such as conformance decisions, requests for initial decisions should be directed to the WHD Branch of Construction Wage Determinations. Requests can be submitted via email to BCWD-Office@dol.gov or by mail to: Branch of Construction Wage Determinations Wage and Hour Division U.S. Department of Labor 200 Constitution Avenue, N.W.
